Art coming out of Iran (or by artists in the diaspora) has a radical and rebellious zeal. In the four decades since the Islamic Revolution, Iranian artists have used clever tactics and unconventional modes of art-making to display disobedience.

So here’s a plot twist
Yesterday, P.Diddy’s home was raided by DHS, the Department of Homeland Security.
It came after a lawsuit was filed in late February by another music producer. The lawsuit accuses P.Diddy (or Puffy Combs or whatever his name is now) and some associates of sex trafficking, sexual assault, and RICO crimes.
We don’t know if the raid was connected to this lawsuit or to the ones Cassidy filed in November 2023.
Because there’s an international audience here — RICO stands for The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) of 1970, which is used charge criminal organizations as a whole. Before RICO, only the people who committed crime could be arrested, charged, sent to trial, etc. But now with RICO, the law can go after people who organize crime - ie the people who keep their hands clean while others do the dirty work. RICO is mostly well known for being used to bring the mafia down, but has also been used in cases such as Iran-Contra, Trump University, and FIFA World Cup Russian and Qatar bribery allegations.
So RICO crimes are very serious. But that’s not the plot twist.
The plot twist is that the lawsuit - which, remember, was filed by a third party (ie not government) - names Prince Harry as a prospective recipient of P.Diddy’s services:
Affiliation with, and or sponsorship of Mr. Combs sex-trafficking parties gamered legitimacy and access to celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artist, musicians, and international dignitaries like British Royal, Prince Harry.
In other words: Prince Harry went to parties hosted or sponsored by P.Diddy in which victims of sex trafficking were present and/or on offer.
Sound familiar?
It’s Epstein/Prince Andrew, Ginger Edition.
And what further twists the knife is that Ron Burkle is *also* being implicated in the P.Diddy lawsuit! Burkle, as you may know, was an Epstein partner and he also owns Soho House…so it’s very possible that if the Burkle side of this is investigated more, there’s potential for Soho House to get pulled into it.
There isn’t a whole lot that we know about these parties or Harry’s involvement/attendance. We don’t know when they took place (e.g., before Meghan came onto the scene or post-Megxit) or what actually happened or if Harry participated in anything. From a picture in the Daily Mail about this, it’s probably pre-Meghan, as the picture shows a young, happy Harry with P.Diddy at a party.
What we do know is that Harry is the only person mentioned by name to attend these parties.
Plot twist.
Here’s the Daily Mail’s story.
Lawsuit filing here. Do be advise that there’s a trigger warning for very graphic details.

Hello my friends. I have been absent from tumblr because I was dealing with my health issues. I'm relatively fine and safe.
I've seen that I have many notes and messages. Unfortunately I can't answer them right now. The Internet connection is really weak and any moment it can be shut down. I'm only back to ask you a favor. You might have heard what's going on in Iran right now. If you don't know watch this.
TW: Graphic content
The internet speed is so low that I can't upload any photo or video. Follow #مهسا_امینی , #MahsaAmini on twitter or instagram for more info.
Iranians have been in the streets all over Iran since then. They are protesting, women burning their headscarves and wanting regime change. It's a revolution. And the regime is shooting at people and killing them. They blocked Instagram and WhatsApp last night. The only remaining available social media apps that you could use without a VPN. They're also shutting down Internet so the world doesn't know about their atrocities.
So please be our voice. We need global support more than ever. Don't let your politicians and governments normalize this inhuman, criminal and terrorist regime and the negotiations with them. Islamic Republic don't represent Iranians. They are fighting with us and murdering us. Please reblog this and be our voice.
